Legends isn’t David’s first Town work. He has also produced a picture of Town’s 2012 Wembley play-off final penalty shoot-out victory, another called Strike Force depicting Law, Worthington, Stewart, Booth and Jordan Rhodes and a third celebrating the club’s new McAlpine Stadium.

David, who has produced hundreds of pictures over a 20-year career, specialises in football portraits but concentrates on smaller clubs.

“My club is Stockport County and they don’t come much smaller than that. I gravitate to clubs where I get on with people.

“The legends don’t mean as much to the Premier League clubs but stick County legends up there and it can still bring a tear to my eye. With Manchester United or City it’s just not the same, there’s something missing.”
